Resurrection to Heaven
by Lost in the fog inct russell said the dead would be resurrected to heaven from 1874-1881.. then the judge decided that it was not 1874/5 for the return of christ but 1914, so moving the heavenly resurrection forward to be from 1914-1918.. in truth nobody knows when it happens or happened.
just because the watchtower leadership says something in the printed word doesn't mean that it is true.

FINALLY sexual abuse among Dutch JW gets attention on national TV! 80 reports received at Reclaimed Voices reporting centre during 1st month
by redpilltwice inthose who have been aware and informed have seen this coming.. of course it's just the beginning.
80 reports seems to be only the tip of the iceberg.
reclaimed voices is expecting hundreds of cases more.

Many reports come from people who are no longer members of the organization...
That'll be enough for most JWs to dismiss this as an attack from Satan.

Watchtower Rebranding
by Fred Franztone inthe wtbts has finally decided to join the rest of us in the 21st century and has begun rebranding.
they've dropped the iconic watchtower sign from their heaquarters, and it's only a matter of time till they drop the now embarrassing watchtower name completely; a name synonymous with failure on the one hand and concentration camps on the other.. the organisation will soon be known solely as jw.org, bringing them right up-to-date with the web 2.0 revolution of 15 years ago, and making them the only company still to use a full web address as their main identifier, very forward-thinking of them.. it's inevitable that they'll gradually rebrand everything.
what methods do you think they'll go with?

I think the online subscription model seems highly plausible, it'd be a way of getting the rank & file to tithe without realising. They could even have a tiered system whereby elders and MS + family get a cheaper subscription, and bethelites get it for free, which would encourage members to reach out.
I could also see them dropping the literal 144K and liberalising the blood doctrine, i.e. making it a matter of personal conscience. I doubt that 1914 is going anywhere though, not this side of 2034 anyway, it's too important. They'll stop mentioning 607BCE though I'm sure, it's a collosal embarrassment.

Annoying jws
by Jrjw ina 'concerned' jw in my congregation rang me earlier and said she's noticed my daughter sits miserable at the meetings and said she's a right miserable girl in general.
i said she's happy and hyper when she's not at the meetings they're just really boring and she doesn't want to be there.
apparently i'm a bad parent coz she feels that way.

One of the things I disliked about moving to a new congregation
by Jules Saturn ini hope i’m not the only one who experienced this but i hated it when we moved to a new congregation and another family from the congregation we were in would move to the same congregation basically following us.
and it was annoying because i always felt like there was this competition over privileges and participation during the meetings with this particular family.
it was so annoying.

The worst thing about moving to a new congregation was the disappointment over how few eligible mates there were, and thinking 'ok, maybe next time'.

No I meant they didn't take the sign with them or put up a new one as a lot of people expected them to. I'm obviously aware that they relocated.
